The Cloisters

August 16, 2015

I went to the Cloisters this weekend with my wife for a date.  What a marvelous place! So much history and such a peaceful setting. I got the distinct feeling that many New Yorkers never visit here which is a real loss since it is so close. If you get the chance to visit check out the ring collections downstairs and read the stories carefully.  The artistry and the history of the rings is really a trip.
